Abstract (en)

The wound dressing has a ring-shaped adhesive section (10) with an open inner zone covered by a shrouding (13), hermetically sealed at the circumference (14) with the adhesive section (10). The open section of the dressing is covered (15) to keep the zone (19) sterile over the wound. The shrouding (13) has a gas inlet (17) with a closure, to fill the shrouding (13) with a gas. The shrouding (13) is evacuated by a gas outlet (18) with a closure. The gas is ozone to kill germs or a gas containing nitrogen to prevent the growth of germs.
